Summers told Bloomberg he was "not even sure I'm so enthusiastic about the $600 checks," let alone $2,000 ones.

Apart from this article, I have to say it was quite an experience having Christmas yesterday and all my family talked about was the $2,000 checks. Trump comes out of this looking like the good guy after more than one Dem has publicly talked about how bad this would be.

    "When you see the two extremes agreeing, you can almost be certain that something crazy is in the air," Summers said, adding that when Sen. Bernie Sanders and Trump are aligned, it's "time to run for cover."

    Big brained moment

      Jesus. I’ve heard the one where if both sides are equally upset then it’s probably a fair deal. But this is that big inverted. If both sides are happy, it must be bad. Lol. He knows how to politic.

      The two people who disagree on everything have both told me to stop shitting on the floor and smearing my face with it. Guess I'd better carry on shitting on the floor and smearing my face with it.
